thistlechaser: (Sleepy Ken)

Yay almost the weekend!

It was hard getting out of bed this morning (which is very different than normal for me). It was colder than usual overnight, and I was so snuggly and warm under my blankets and with my cat next to me. Now I'm at work in the AC and bright, harsh lights. Blah.

FFXI was mostly uneventful last night. Farmed, farmed, farmed. Did I mention yet that I farmed? I'm getting a little somewhat very bored with farming, but I need money fast, so. Why "fast"? Because I'm a sick, sick little DRK. I'm so sad that I can't buy more armor! Must Buy More Armor Now! HQ stuff makes me happy, so if I don't buy any then I'm not happy! Blah. At least that's only happening in-game and I have no spending-money obsessions in RL.

Took a break in the middle of farming to help a LS member (Thrapy) get some item for a quest. As the item dropped from the first mob we killed, you'd think it would have been only a short break, but no. We had to do it on that damned barge, so it took more than an hour to get on it. (30+ minutes to gather together, 36 minutes wait for the boat). Then because the darned server kicked me off, it took me another hour to get home from CL/South Landing. (First I was waiting for another boat, but that was taking too long so went out to Jugner to outpost warp home... only to find a beastman banner there instead of NPCs. Bah.)

I've been trying to get more action screenshots, and this one amused me. *chomp* I eat your head! Luckily I don't use it for much in-game...

That's about that. On Friday we're starting our farming for eyes for clusters for O-Hats. Yay! The hat will be very, very, very, very nice for DRK. Mmm, +acc! +10 acc!

Hey, Thistle, would you happen to have that link to the Alla thread with levelling locations that Niala posted somewhere a little while ago? I can't seem to find it. ^^; Static hit 39 last night and we're looking for a new place to go. Thanks!

Sure thing, here you go:

Yay, thanks! ^_^

Since my highest job (WAR) is 40, I've pretty much reached the point where I can't speak from personal experience any more. Which, to me, is actually pretty cool, as it means DRG is soon going to be my highest-leveled job.

I may try to do some of those teamwork quests this weekend, so if you're not busy, I'll poke you. ^_~

Yeah, it's odd picking places to XP when you've never done those levels before.

And yay poking!

I wonder if I'll be able to come out and farm eyes with you guys. I need to check into that to see if it'll end up in the middle of the night for me or something.

Yay! Check Ead's CTY journal for more info.

"Cute"? Hrump! I'm angsty and dark (and DRK) and sexy! "Cute" is for kittens and small children.

i like how you've taken to writing my name as Thrapy :P

Bah! I can never spell your name! And it's not like it's overly complex... No, wait! How about if I say I'm doing it on purpose? It's, um, my nickname for you! Yeah, that's it! :P

(Sorry. :) )
